David and Rosetta Smaje were my 4 x great grandparents.  They both originated from Amsterdam and came to the UK in 1844.  They first settled in London's East End before moving to the Wirral.  Three of their children (Joseph, Catherine and Barnett) moved to the North West with them.  At least two of their children (Henry and Julia) remained in the East End.  Another son, Louis, settled in Hull.  I am a descendant of their daughter, Julia.  She married a gentile and so was disowned by her Jewish family.
